Maybe they’ll roll Hulu’s content into Disney+ without raising prices.

Without raising prices, right?

If you mean not raising prices from what Disney+hulu costs, they probably will combine them for that price (or the bundle with ESPN)

But no, not for the price of Disney+

Honestly they should just consolidate. That's probably part of why they're doing this. Like Discovery and HBO, running two services is expensive... I fully expect Discovery+ to shut down entirely once behind the scenes content deals are over
